My cat gets a clear runny nose in cold weather. What should I do?

Question

My Siamese tends to get a runny nose {clear discharge} in cold weather. Is there anything I can give her to help? She is eleven years old, strictly indoor cat, up to date on her shots. Pet's info: Cat | Siamese | Female | spayed | 11 years and 3 months old

If your kitty has no problems breathing, and if the discharge stays clear, then you do not have to do anything. The next time she has that discharge, take her temperature and if it is 102F or higher you should monitor her for lethargy or not eating, as she may have a viral infection. If the discharge is purulent (yellow or green) she needs to be seen by a veterinarian.
